Re: [A/S] On the roof?

Well, I beg to differ. Both of my trailers, the 21 and this 25 have 
had numerous ladders propped against them. I learned the towel trick 
from a dealer who propped a ladder against it, climbed up onto the 
roof and installed my Fantastic Vent on the 21'

The 25 foot has had ladders propped up to it no less than 7 times. 

It has never dented....

board - be sure to have that board across the ribs.>

Great suggestion, but no one has ever done it to my roof and plenty 
of men have walked around on it...... I can site each case if you'd 
like.

trailer to a dealer and pay them to install stuff or do stuff on the 
roof.  after all, they have the scaffolds and the 15 foot long 
stepladders.>

Your choice, and good advice again... but more than one Airstream 
dealer has propped a ladder against my trailer and climbed up on the 
roof.
